KHARA (SAVORY) BISCUIT

Bored of baking sweet / sugary cookies, I decided to bake some spicy biscuits… and got this recipe from my friend and it came out so cute, lovely and spicy that every one at my place liked it.  It doesn’t have any raising agent and required very less fat.  My husband prefers spice over sweet and so he liked it so much… crunchy and spicy khara biscuit.

STAINED GLASS COOKIES

 

I had these cookies at my friend Sowmya’s (www.nivedhanams.blogspot.in) place and my daughter liked it.  She started pestering me to make them for her.  For a very long time I could not get the coloured candies to bake this cookies.  Finally, one day I found them and baked these cute, colourful looking cookies for my daughter.

CHOCO CRINCKLE COOKIES

We were going on a short family vacation to Wayanad, Kerala with my husband’s first cousin whom we call “mama” and his wife - my favourite manni (sister-in-law). Mama is very fond of cookies and I wanted to bake some for the trip as we were driving down and thought this would serve as in-between snacks.  I took this recipe from my dear friend and my baking guru Sowmya’s blog www.nivedhanams.blogspot.in.  This particular cookie turned out to be wholesome and filling… my little one calls it snow ball cookies and loved it.
 

GINGER BREAD COOKIES

 

 

 

 

I always wanted to try my hands on baking.  I came across this program in TLC named Rachel Allen’s Bake and she made this beautiful ginger bread house with sweets.  I liked it and wanted to bake some for my little one.  It really came out good with a subtle flavour of ginger powder and cinnamon.  Though I wanted to decorate my cookies with icing, couldn’t do so for lack of time and energy.
